This 423-hour course is designed for individuals seeking foundational training as a Medical Assistant. Students will develop the essential theory and practical skills needed to assist healthcare providers in a clinical setting. Training includes both front office (administrative) and back office (clinical) procedures, with emphasis on supporting patient care in outpatient and ambulatory healthcare environments.

The course includes 423 hours of instruction over 32 weeks in a flexible, self-paced hybrid format. Hybrid means a combination of in-person classes and optional online hours via our Flexible Health Zoom Classroom. All skills training and exams must be completed in person, requiring weekly on-site attendance. Students work with the instructor to create a personalized schedule and may choose to complete the entire course in person if preferred

The curriculum begins with foundational courses in Anatomy & Physiology (A&P) and Medical Terminology (MT). Students with prior coursework in either subject may be eligible for advanced standing. To request credit, students must submit a transcript showing successful completion (grade of C or better) to stormie.roberson@francistuttle.edu. Upon approval, enrollment for adjusted hours and pricing can be completed by contacting an enrollment consultant at 405.717.4900.

Please note

  • A&P credit from this course does not fulfill the prerequisite for the Francis Tuttle Practical Nursing program.
  • Medical Terminology does count toward the Practical Nursing program prerequisite.

Students who meet eligibility requirements may choose to pursue national certification through the National Healthcareer Association (NHA). It is the student’s responsibility to research and become familiar with the specific eligibility, training, and testing requirements for either certification.
